URBAN DECAY SMOKY EYE PALETTE REVIEW

This is my third Urban Decay palette, and they never cease to impress. I absolutely adored the Naked palettes 1 and 3, so I thought I would try out their new one that everybody has being talking about. Starting off with the packaging. They have certainly outdone themselves as it is stunning, and I am in love with I every time I pick it up. They’ve gone for a marble metallic look and I’ll say it once again, I am in love. 

When you open it up, there is a double sided brush, as always, but this time the brushes are different. One is amazing for applying and the other one for blending, and the bristles are extremely soft. The shades are actually quite similar to the original Naked palette, except it has a few darker coulours, and less nudes. I will admit, I haven’t picked it up often, and I’m not sure if I’m absolutely in love with it yet, but it’s definitely one to have in your collection, as it’s great for a dark dramatic smoky eye.

 I have three favourite shades: High, which is a glittery vanilla colour, and is amazing for the inner corner of your eyes; Armor, a metallic silver that is definitely not an everyday shade, but certainly an beautiful one; and lastly Smolder, that’s a dark autumnal shade, that’s nearly on the purple side, without looking too unique, so it still looks amazing with just a little black dress. I’m still working out how exactly to combine the other shades in everyday life, especially as lately I’ve had a few new palettes to try, that you guys will see soon. 

I definitely do recommend this palette though, it has the shades to create some beautiful looks, so send me a pic if you give it a go.

NAKEDNESS:NAKED PALETTE 3

How can a product be loved so much? I ask myself that question often, especially when I’m looking at the Naked palette 3. It’s one of the most stunning palettes I own, and I really can’t get enough of the variety of pinky nudes that it offers. They’re all perfectly pigmented, perfect for a smokey eye or just a simple dab of sweet colour. I adore the matte colours, and they are my day to day shades, whereas the more shimmery colours are perfect for an evening out.

Dust and Nooner are my favourite shades, and I love achieving new looks every time I try a new combination of colours. The brush that comes incorporated in the palette is soft and easy to use, making the application absolutely flawless.

All the shades are absolutely beautiful, and even though I don’t think all of them are of daily use, I absolutely recommend it to anyone out there who is looking for a new stunning palette that radiates summer everywhere.

URBAN DECAY-NAKED PALETTE REVIEW

When my love for makeup started in about September, the first thing I wanted to buy was the Naked palette by Urban Decay. I’ve never seen a bad review for it and everyone always talks extremely highly of it. I was never interested in eye shadows before, mostly because I had no idea how to apply them, but this was a product that highly intrigued me.

 

I received it for my birthday in October, and since then it’s been a daily essential.

The coulours are neutral and go with anything. They’re perfect for a natural look or a glamorous night out. You can really never go wrong with it. The palette comes with a double-sided brush, which perfects the application.

If you’re on the lookout for a new palette, I raccomend it greatly. I know that this is the first palette, and the oldest one, but it’s ‘old but gold’, truly. I’m planning on getting the other 3 as well, to see if Urban Decay specializes in amazing palettes! 

Do you use the Naked palette?
